The site was identified as important in 2010 because it was regularly supporting significant populations of the species listed below, meeting ('triggering') IBA criteria.
Populations meeting IBA criteria ('trigger species'):Species | Current IUCN Red List Category | Season | Year(s) | Population estimate at site | IBA criteria met |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Black-throated Huet-huet Pteroptochos tarnii | LC | resident | 2007-2009 | present | A2 |
Chucao Tapaculo Scelorchilus rubecula | LC | resident | 2007-2009 | present | A2 |
Ochre-flanked Tapaculo Eugralla paradoxa | LC | resident | 2009 | present | A2 |
The current IUCN Red List category may differ from that which was valid at the time of IBA criteria assessment (2010).
